To assist with integrating the Mazda RX7 S4 FC front suspension into my Mazda 323, I've decided to see if I can create a solid works model for the suspension and then one for the Mazda chassis to see what fabrication work is need to integrate it. Looking online into engineering tutorials I found a site called Grab CAD community and a tutorial on there around spring design in solid works which looks fairly strait forward. https://grabcad.com/tutorials/tutorial-how-to-model-a-suspension-spring-in-solidworks-and-show-design-intent The main issue I have is the Lower Control Arms (LCA's) are a rather complex shape and will require me to up-skill in SolidWorks to be able to reproduce them. I'm in the process of sandblasting the part and taking some better images from which to model it. *UPDATE -- 1FEB17 nearly finished sketching the LCA and spindles
